As no brainer as that Rroff !!?? what about it needing a minimum of a 500w PSU and mine is an 850 and i dont really know what all the other components draw from that so
if there enough left for GPU where as the 1060 only needs a 350 i believe ? just want to get it right i guess...£400 is all my saving :p
However if you are suggesting the 1070 on my rig spec then happy days :D thanks for the input mate.

Hang fire there!

If you only have an 850w PSU don't buy more than three 1070's;)

Have to agree with easyrider that £418 is a bit much for a 1070, is you get one from a major seller they all have the For Honor/Wildlands offer.
I got an Asus Dual OC a couple of weeks ago for £339 and with the 1080 price drops there is going to be some downward pressure on 1070 prices even without an official price cut and factory overclocks can be easily surpassed by most 1070's so just get the cheapest with a decent looking cooler.

I just got one as well..I thought the price was a misprint as when I checked later after ordering it, it had gone back up!! was terrified they would cancel the order
 
Can you return the card and get a 1080 for just over £400 with your vat return? 1070 is gr8 from where your coming from no doubt, just a thought
 
What res you gaming at? My laptop has a 1070 (probably underclocked a little as its a laptop afterall) and it is pretty good performance even at 4k, as long as i turn a few settings down such as AA, filtering etc i can get 40-60fps in a lot of newer titles (At high settings). It should murder 1080p and 1440p especially with a full fat 1070.

lol im just too excited now to care LeMson :p its here and waiting to be fitted tonight. Your probably right too but as i came from an R9 290 this card will be awesome for me.

As i only have a 1080p screen i am sure Lara will look like i have never seen her before too :D

Thanks again everyone, i will post my opinion in a few days once up and running. Cheers.
